Facebook users upset by change in terms of use
Social networking site can use all material even after you've taken profile down

February 17, 2009 David Sturgill has posted his cell phone number, personal e-mail address and work information on his Facebook page and now wonders if that was a good idea.
The 32-year-old who lives in Fells Point has been using the social networking site for two years, but since he learned this week of the company's change in its terms of use, he's not sure he trusts Facebook with the information.

Facebook quietly changed the terms this month but users became aware of it -- and some outraged by it --when a popular consumer blog posted about it this week.

The change gives Facebook a license to use all material that users post after they have taken their profile down. Old terms said that license expired when users left Facebook.
